Select>selection from layer

A workaround may be, duplicate the group select everything in that group do a boolean add give the new shape no fill or stroke and create the shadow inside that shape. Clumsy but it works

A seamless fill works the same, use the filltool and use the bitmap fill. Check on the left side of the bar if fill is selected otherwise the stroke is filled. Did not see your image when i made my reply. It looks like the shape in not a closed shape, so there is nothing to fill.

I thought you wanted a seamless background

Place a rectangle behind the drawing an fill with the fiiltool, and use image (bitmap) in the dropdown.

or use the corner tool

I think snilloc want's to draw a 1/4 ellipse with the pen tool and have a perfect radius

You would need to expand the stroke first, layer>expand stroke

If possible, could you post the afphoto file?

File>new?

At the bottom of the layers panel click on new layer

The objects are stil rectangles, the only difference is that they now can be edited with the node tool.

Or on a rectangle use the corner tool

file>new from clipboard

looks like you did knock out the 2 parts of the prop, only it is not visable because of the 2 pont stroke. set the stoke of the 2 parts to 0 and substact the prop parts

That's right, for direct cutting you would need to buy the connect pluging from cameo, and this plugin does not support designer.

Afaik there is no cut plug-in for designer, only illustrator an coreldraw.

@romeno I use the cameo silhoutte to cut designs made with designer, but i can not print directly from designer. I export the design as svg (at 72 dpi and "set viewbox" unchecked) and import in the silhoutte software this works ok.

with te frame text tool active?

don't know if it is the same on mac, but on windows you can move the cursor to the textframe boundingbox and move the textframe.

Could be you are in full screen view, try tab to return to normal view

Looks like a active pixel selection, press ctrl D to deselect

and it does,

Try, layer>fillmode>alternate

The checkmark is to view or hide the layer, you should click on the layer, it should color bleu
